Summary of Content: Map of North and South Carolina in an early period of settlement. Includes an inset of the area around Charleston, which locates plantations. This copy has a pencil note ”1740” in margin, but no evidence for dating. In fact, this map remained current without change in French atlases for more than half a century. Cumming 120, Phillips 3448.
